Free Radicals - Female Sexuality & PT 141/Bremelanotide

In part two of our discussion with Mona Lisa Chanda, McGill PhD candidate in behavioural neuroscience, about the science behind female sexuality, we talk further about the new drug PT 141/Bremelanotide. We hear a few more clips from Mona's interview with Dr. Jim Pfaus, and talk about the quantification of desire, the extent that animal models can be used to inform human sexuality, the role of therapy in addressing sexual problems, and how drug research and behavioural science research inform one another at the laboratory level.
